Imagine having my plate, with people frequently laughing and saying "N-O-T-A-B-U-G"!

Default Same here in Frederick MD.. I read their lips all the time..

Many ask their friend or significant other " what is that?".. 99% mouth back "I don't know". I pulled up next to a young gal at a stop light. I glanced over as she was saying "Damn that's nice".. It can also be dangerous as people try to get up next to you to get a better look.. Some go ahead and look back at the front end. I've seen them stop and make U turns to get back where they were heading.. They kept following to get a better look I guess.

Teenage boys are constantly trying to mess with me in their ricey or other cars .. I visited my Mom in Wilmington Delaware this weekand. On the way home. A Ford Escort, Small older Saturn and a Geo Storm were just begging for a race... I didn't offer up a "demonstration".. Way too many cars & police on the road and I'm still non V1'd.. A Corvete did show me he was boss (I guess). He was in the middle lane of 95. He had been going slower (around 65) for a long while. I could see him up ahead. I went by him about 75/80 MPH.. just cruising along. Anyway I hear this roar and he blasts past me on the right and he cuts in front of me into the left lane... After a minute or so, he drifted back in the middle lane, slowed down and I went on by again. He just had to show that HP I suppose.. I hope he felt better. I just laughed.

Default pointing out the roll bars

Pretty much once a day, if I am at a stop light and there's two people in the car behind me and I am looking in the rear view mirror, some driver will be looking at my car and pointing out to the passenger (or vice versa) the shiny rollbars.

It's really funny watching them do these upside-down U-shaped movements with their hands.

What can I say, maybe LA people are weird?
